{ "source": "Fashion Week Venues", "title": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris", "description": "This 180-square-meter commercial space is located on Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth in the Haut Marais district of Paris. Operating as both an art gallery and a showroom, the property features 180 square meters of exhibition space organized across three rooms. The interior is designed with a white-box minimal aesthetic and includes ground-floor street access.\n\nThe facility is equipped with essential amenities to support a variety of professional uses. Technical features include lighting, natural daylight, heating, and wifi. The space also provides a complete kitchen and office equipment. For convenience, there is a water closet on-site and furniture is provided. Accessibility is facilitated by multiple entrances, a cargo entrance, and handicap-accessible features. Additionally, the property includes a window display for retail support. This modular space is situated in the 3rd arrondissement and is suitable for hosting showrooms and exhibitions. All provided features are intended to accommodate the operational needs of the occupant within this professional setting.", "editorialTake": "Book this Haut Marais address for a seasonal wholesale showroom that doubles as a press day venue, because the three-room layout lets you hold buyer appointments, stock and steaming, and editor hospitality on the same floor without any of the three seeing each other. What makes the address work for that dual function is the combination of gallery-grade wall lighting and daylight across 180 square metres of white box, plus a cargo entrance that means rails and crates arrive without crossing the street-facing window display, and a ground-floor entry sitting one minute from Temple metro and two from République so appointment punctuality holds up across a full Paris Fashion Week schedule. The brand profile is mid-scale contemporary rather than heritage maison: ready-to-wear, tailoring, knitwear, leather goods, footwear or fine jewellery, three to ten years in, with a real wholesale book and a material-led aesthetic that reads well against neutral plaster, and we would be honest that a large house needing twelve simultaneous appointment stations should look at bigger spaces in Paris instead. In our experience the March and late September showroom windows in the 3rd arrondissement go first and go early, so enquire eight to twelve weeks out for fashion week dates and four for off-season content studio or sample sale space use, and be aware that Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth is narrow with restricted daytime loading, so build and delivery slots want to sit before ten in the morning, which our production and build team schedules around as standard.", "idealBrandProfile": "This space fits a brand with a 5 to 30 person team, roughly 3 to 10 years of trading, and an established wholesale book or a DTC business doing seven figures annually. At 180 square metres split across three rooms, it gives you enough separation to run a buyer appointment in one room, hold stock and steaming in the second, and stage press or hospitality in the third, which is the operational reason mid-size brands get more from it than a single open-plan floor of the same size. The complete kitchen and office equipment mean a team of six to ten can work out of the space for a full week of showroom days without renting a second base. Where we see mismatches is when a first-season designer with one rail of samples takes 180 square metres and cannot fill it, or when a large house needing 400 plus square metres for a full seasonal wholesale calendar with twelve simultaneous appointments treats this as a global showroom. For those larger requirements we would point you toward other spaces in Paris with greater floorplate. Aesthetic Fit A white-box minimal interior with strong natural daylight suits brands whose product carries the room: contemporary ready-to-wear, tailoring, knitwear, leather goods, footwear, eyewear, fine jewellery, and design-led beauty or fragrance. The gallery DNA means the walls and lighting are already set up to treat garments and objects as exhibition pieces, so any brand built on material quality, colour accuracy, or archival storytelling will photograph and present well here with minimal build. Brands with a maximalist, heavily themed, or nightlife-driven identity will fight this space rather than use it, because covering a white box in temporary cladding and dark treatments costs more than starting from a raw industrial venue. Similarly, mass-market brands relying on dense fixture density and high volume merchandising will find the restraint of three quiet gallery rooms works against them. If your concept sits somewhere between the two, our concept and direction team can pressure test it before you commit. Best Use Cases First choice is a seasonal fashion showroom for wholesale appointments, because three separate rooms let you run buyer meetings, collection preview and back-of-house simultaneously without visual crossover. Second is a press day or collection preview during Paris Fashion Week, given the one minute walk to Temple metro and two minutes to République keeps editor and stylist attendance high. Third is a pop-up shop or temporary retail space, supported by ground-floor street access and a window display that does real work on a busy Haut Marais street. Fourth is a sample sale or trunk show, where the cargo entrance and multiple entrances make stock in and out and queue management straightforward. Fifth is an art exhibition or pop-up exhibition, which the space already does natively. Sixth is a content studio day, using the daylight and neutral walls for lookbook and social capture. Seventh is an influencer event or cocktail reception, with the kitchen handling catering prep on site. Eighth is a workshop, masterclass or small corporate presentation for 30 to 60 seated guests. Budget Signal Expect upper-mid market pricing for the 3rd arrondissement, below Rue Saint-Honoré or Place Vendôme prime retail but above the Belleville and 10th arrondissement raw-shell alternatives brands consider as a cost saving. In our experience the profile that gets the most from this space is the brand that would otherwise be paying hotel event space rates in the 1st or 8th and receiving carpet, chandeliers and a per-head food and beverage minimum instead of a clean white box. Compared with a co-working venue you gain a street-facing window, a cargo entrance and genuine gallery lighting. Compared with a shared showroom format you gain full brand control of the whole address for your dates. Furniture, kitchen, wifi and office equipment are included, which removes a meaningful line from the build budget, and you can model that saving properly with the budget calculator before you enquire.", "faq": [ { "question": "Is this space available for pop-up shops?", "answer": "Yes, this 180 square metre showroom and gallery on Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth is available for pop-up shops and temporary retail. Ground-floor street access and a street-facing window display are the two features that make a pop-up work here rather than feel like a private appointment room, because passers-by on this stretch of the Haut Marais can see in and walk straight off the pavement. The three-room layout lets you separate selling floor, fitting and stock without building walls, which keeps your fit-out cost down. In our experience handling bookings at addresses like this in the 3rd arrondissement, brands running a two to four week pop-up here convert well because the white-box interior photographs cleanly and needs very little dressing. Enquire with your dates and we will confirm the day rate and whether your window falls inside a peak Paris Fashion Week period." }, { "question": "What does Fashion Week Venues handle on my behalf for this booking?", "answer": "We handle the full path from enquiry to keys, and then the operational build if you want it. What we manage on your behalf at this address specifically is landlord negotiation, the occupancy agreement, dates and access windows, insurance requirements, and confirmation of what the 180 square metres includes on the day you arrive. Beyond the contract we can deliver fit-out, furniture, staffing, point of sale, and content capture through all services" }, { "question": "How much does it cost to rent per day?", "answer": "The day rate for this space is on request rather than published, because pricing moves with your dates, duration and how much of the building you need exclusively. Paris pricing in the 3rd arrondissement is materially higher during the September and March ready-to-wear weeks and the January and June men's and couture windows, so a March showroom week and a quiet November content shoot will not be quoted the same. Send us your dates and format and we reply within 24h with a figure that includes access hours and any landlord conditions. Brands booking 180 square metres in the Haut Marais for a full wholesale season typically find the weekly rate better value than stacking single days, so tell us if you can commit to a block." }, { "question": "What is the layout and how is the 180 square metres divided?", "answer": "The 180 square metres, or 1,938 square feet, is organised across three connected rooms on the ground floor. That separation is the practical value of the space: you can hold a buyer appointment in one room, keep rails, steaming and boxes in the second, and use the third for press, hospitality or a seated presentation. The interior is a white-box minimal treatment with painted walls and gallery lighting already in place, so the rooms read as one coherent brand environment rather than three unrelated units. In our experience brands hiring this format in Paris get more usable programme from three rooms at 180 square metres than from a single open floor of the same size, because you never have to clear one activity to start another." }, { "question": "How many people can the space hold for an event?", "answer": "Working occupancy sits at around 190 people for a standing reception across the three rooms, and comfortably 30 to 60 for a seated workshop, masterclass or brand presentation. For a cocktail reception or exhibition opening the multiple entrances help with flow, letting you separate arrivals from the service route so guests are not crossing catering traffic. The complete kitchen on site means your caterer can prep and plate in the building instead of working from a van on Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth, which is a real constraint at many Marais addresses. Confirm your headcount when you request availability so we can advise on staffing levels and whether you need a security presence for the door." }, { "question": "Is the space suitable for a wholesale showroom and buyer appointments?", "answer": "Yes, and this is the format the space handles most naturally as a fashion showroom during the Paris market weeks. The three rooms allow simultaneous wholesale appointments, collection preview and back-of-house stock without buyers seeing each other or your steaming station. Natural daylight plus controllable gallery lighting means buyers assess colour and fabric accurately, which matters more than most brands expect when a collection is signed off under artificial light and then disputed later. Office equipment, wifi and a complete kitchen let a team of six to ten work out of the space for a full week of appointments without renting a second base. If you want the room dressed with rails, seating and a presentation table, our furniture rental" }, { "question": "Can I run a sample sale here?", "answer": "Yes, the cargo entrance and multiple entrances make this space workable for a sample sale or showroom sale, which is not true of every gallery in the Haut Marais. You can move pallets and rails in through the cargo entrance while keeping the street-facing door for customers, and use the three rooms to separate queue, sell floor and till. The window display gives you a place to signal the sale to foot traffic without relying entirely on your mailing list. Brands running this format in this type of space typically find they need to plan queue management on the pavement in advance, and we handle that conversation with the landlord and, where relevant, the local authority as part of the booking." }, { "question": "Is it a good space for a press day or influencer event during Paris Fashion Week?", "answer": "Yes, and the location is the reason. Temple metro is 62 metres away at a one minute walk and République is two minutes, with Arts et Métiers, Jacques Bonsergent, Strasbourg Saint-Denis and Filles du Calvaire all within seven minutes on foot, so editors and stylists moving between Paris Fashion Week appointments can add you to an existing route rather than making a detour. The white-box rooms and daylight mean your press images and influencer content come out clean without a lighting build. Fashion week dates on Marais addresses like this move quickly, so we advise requesting availability three to four months out for a September or March window. If you want the guest list amplified, we can layer in influencer marketing" }, { "question": "What is included in the space? Do I need to bring furniture and equipment?", "answer": "The space is move-in ready with furniture provided, gallery lighting, heating, wifi, office equipment, a complete kitchen and a WC on site. That combination removes a meaningful line from your build budget compared with a raw shell in the 10th or 11th, where you would be renting furniture, running power for lighting and hiring a portable catering setup. What you bring is your product, your rails or fixtures if you need retail-specific merchandising, and any branded elements. For a pop-up shop you will usually want card readers and a till point, which we can supply through our point of sale and payments" }, { "question": "Is there loading access and step-free entry?", "answer": "Yes, the space has a dedicated cargo entrance for deliveries plus multiple entrances and handicap-accessible features. Because everything sits on the ground floor with direct street access, there is no lift dependency and no carrying rails up a Haussmannian staircase, which is the single most common logistics problem brands hit in central Paris. The cargo entrance means you can take a delivery mid-event without walking crates through your guests. Parking and delivery on Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth needs planning because the street is narrow, so we coordinate delivery slots and any required road-side permissions on your behalf ahead of your load-in day." }, { "question": "What permit or contract do I need to occupy this space temporarily in Paris?", "answer": "Short-term commercial occupation in Paris is normally structured as a bail dérogatoire or a convention d'occupation précaire, which is the French equivalent of a licence to occupy and is the standard route for a pop-up or seasonal showroom at an address like this. The document you sign depends on your duration and whether you are selling to the public or running private appointments only, and we advise on which applies before you commit. Separate permissions can apply to exterior signage, pavement queuing and any structural fit-out, and window display changes are usually straightforward because the window is already part of the retail setup. Our permit guide" }, { "question": "Can I use it as a content studio or shoot location?", "answer": "Yes, this is a strong daylight content studio because the three white-box rooms give you multiple backgrounds in one hire without moving location. Natural daylight plus adjustable gallery lighting covers most lookbook, e-commerce and social requirements, and the neutral walls mean colour grading stays predictable across a full shoot day. The complete kitchen and WC support a crew for a full day, and the cargo entrance takes in lighting kit and wardrobe without disruption. Brands often book this space for a shoot day immediately before or after a showroom week, which is efficient because your samples are already in the building. Book by the day for shoots or by the week if you are combining formats." }, { "question": "What is the Haut Marais location like for footfall and brand neighbours?", "answer": "Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth sits in the Haut Marais at the edge of Place de la République, an area that has become the default district for contemporary and independent fashion in Paris. Footfall is a mix of local residents, creative-industry workers and the steady flow of shoppers and gallery visitors who work their way north from the lower Marais, which suits a considered brand rather than a high-volume mass-market drop. Nearby landmarks include the Synagogue de Nazareth at 75 metres and Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Church just over 100 metres away, giving the street a quieter architectural character than the busier retail spines further south. If you want to weigh this district against other options across the city before you commit, browse comparable spaces in Paris" }, { "question": "How far ahead should I book, and what is the minimum rental period?", "answer": "Minimum duration is agreed with the landlord case by case rather than fixed, so short-term rental options range from a single shoot day to a multi-week pop-up. For non-peak dates four to six weeks of lead time is usually workable, but for the Paris Fashion Week and market weeks we recommend starting three to four months out because Haut Marais showroom space at this size is committed early. Tell us your ideal dates and your acceptable range and we will hold what is realistic while the contract is drafted. In our experience brands that share a date window rather than a single fixed day get better rates and more options." }, { "question": "How do I enquire, and what happens after that?", "answer": "Send an enquiry with your dates, format and approximate headcount and we reply within 24h with availability, pricing and any landlord conditions specific to this address. From there we issue a proposal covering the occupancy agreement, access hours, load-in and load-out, and any services you want layered on top such as fit-out, staffing or furniture. Nothing is payable until the booking is confirmed, and the deposit and payment schedule are set out in the proposal before you sign. Brief-based pricing means the more detail you give us about your activation, the faster and more accurate the first quote will be." }, { "question": "What is the day rate?", "answer": "Rates are quoted on request — send your dates and use case through the inquiry card." }, { "question": "Is staging, branding and fit-out permitted?", "answer": "Yes. Fashion Week Venues runs the full production build — signage, fixtures, lighting, sound, catering and staffing — subject to venue rules. Include your fit-out brief in the inquiry." }, { "question": "What is included?", "answer": "Included on-site: daylight, lighting, wc, whitebox minimal, cargo entrance, handicap accessible, multiple entrances, complete kitchen." }, { "question": "How far in advance should we book?", "answer": "Fashion week windows book 6–10 weeks out. Off-season activations can be secured in 2–3 weeks." } ], "editorialFaqCount": 15, "city": "Paris", "country": "France", "postalCode": "75003", "lat": 48.8670105, "lon": 2.3610147, "areaSqm": 180, "areaSqft": 1938, "priceLabel": "on request", "priceEur": null, "coverImage": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-1.jpg", "gallery": [ { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-2.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-3.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, interior view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-4.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, second interior view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-5.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, third interior view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-6.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, additional interior view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-7.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, further interior view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-8.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, detail view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8-9.jpg", "caption": "Showroom and Gallery in the Haut Marais, Paris, 180 sqm, pop up store, further detail view" } ], "amenities": [ "daylight", "lighting", "wc", "whitebox minimal", "cargo entrance", "handicap accessible", "multiple entrances", "complete kitchen", "furniture", "heating", "office equipment", "wifi", "ground floor street", "window display" ], "useCases": [ "pop up store", "retail activation", "showroom presentation", "fashion showroom", "fashion sample sale", "art exhibition", "gallery showing", "product launch", "brand activation", "press day", "press event", "influencer event", "content creation", "workshop", "creative workshop", "masterclass", "networking event", "corporate event", "cocktail reception", "trunk show", "showroom sale", "exhibition opening", "pop up exhibition", "retail experience", "experiential marketing" ], "canonicalUrl": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/spaces/showroom-and-gallery-in-the-haut-marais-paris-a14879b8" }
